For the anti derivative $F(x)$ of any function $f(x)$, the derivative of $F(x) = f(x)$. Finding the anti-derivative is the process of 'undoing' derivation.
Anti derivatives are *not* unique, functions typically have an infinite number of antiderivatives.
> If $F(x)$ is an antiderivative of $f(x)$, the most general anti-derivative $f(x)$ is $F(x) + C$, where $C$ is an arbitrary constant.
